The hormone(s) synthesised in the meristematic tissue of the plant shoot and root is/ areI. Abscisic acidII. AuxinIII. Cytokinin

Correct answer: D. II and III

  • A. I only
  • B. II only
  • C. I and II
  • D. II and III

Explanation

The correct answer is D. II and III. Both auxin and cytokinin are hormones synthesized in meristematic tissues of plants. Auxin is primarily responsible for cell elongation and is synthesized at the tips of shoots and roots. Cytokinin promotes cell division and differentiation and is also synthesized in these meristematic areas. Abscisic acid, on the other hand, is mainly involved in stress responses and is not typically synthesized in meristematic tissues, making options A, B, and C incorrect.
